2011-2012 Development Schedule: Landfill Gas Project Landfill Gas Pipe Construction Phasing

The pipe brings landfill gas from Eubanks Road to a generator located at Carolina North. The electricity generated there will connect to the Duke Energy power grid at a point on Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. Eventually, heat will be recovered from the generator to be used to heat buildings at Carolina North. Phase One: collection system at Eubanks Rd. Sept. 2010 – Oct. 2011 Phase Two: pipe from Eubanks Rd. to Homestead Rd. Jan – April 2012 Phase Three: pipe from Homestead Rd. to generator (with ductbank) Feb 2012 – Aug 2012

Bolin Creek East Conservation Area Changes Explained Resolved conflict between Development

Area boundary & Conservation Area 4. Offset Conservation Area 100’ from Development Area boundary to account for fill slope from old runway. Included more streams, stream buffers, and wetlands. Created wildlife corridor that connects to west side.
